Esteban Garcia – Realteam Racing Driver and Owner

“After a 2019 season that has allowed us to get our bearings, we hope to take a new step. We have found our place in the European Le Mans Series. Ambitions are being revised upwards with the desire to do better and the idea is clearly to make further progress before thinking of LMP2, which is our objective for 2021. The main objective behind this move into the higher category is Le Mans which, for any driver, is the grail. The LMP3 category is the gateway and we will participate this year in Road to Le Mans, which will allow us to get to know this great circuit.”

David Droux – Realteam Racing Driver

“I am very happy to continue with Realteam Racing. This is a long-term project with the 24 Hours as the ultimate goal and I am happy to be able to continue this collaboration with the team. I hope that all the things we have put in place this winter, with Esteban in particular, will allow us to progress and aim for the best possible result this season in the European Le Mans Series.”
